[Qemu-devel] [PATCH RFC 0/4] arm64: cross cpu support

[Tushar Jagad]

Currently running guests having vcpus different from the host cpu
(for example running cortex-a57 guest on X-Gene) is not supported in
arm64 kvm.

This patchset adds basic support for running guests in cross cpu
configuration. Currently the cross cpu functionality is limited
to
- Target specific MIDR register value i.e. /proc/cpuinfo will reflect the
  value of cpu requested.
- Hardware debug capability infomation i.e. guest kernel will see the number
  of breakpoints and watchpoints as requested by the user.

These patches are based on top of kernel tag v4.2.
